How to create your free karmic astrology chart

Step 1: Gather your date, place – and time of birth

Don't have the time? If you can, ask your parents. Or look on your birth certificate. Some hospitals will also have the time on record, and look it up for a fee.

Today, it's not critical that you have the time. However, to know where in life your soul purpose is to be focused (e.g. career or home? Locally, or internationally? Externally, or internally? Individually or in groups?) you need the time – as exact as you can get.

Europe-based Astrodienst has some fantastic information, so have fun exploring. Psychologist Ph.D. Liz Greene and others featured on this site are world reknowned astrologers.

Note that Astrodienst covers psychological astrology rather than a spiritual approach to astrology. Not that the information isn't valuable... it just won't explain things in the same way.

Step 3: Identify your North Node sign and house ☊

Okay! Once you have your chart from Astrodienst, the next step to creating your free karmic astrology reading is to look for a symbol that looks like ☊ or an upside down 'U' with 'True Node' beside it (this is another name for North Node).

It's like an upside down bucket that's empty, waiting to be full... a great analogy for your soul growth, yes?

In contrast, the South Node symbol ☋ is like the bucket that's already full. At least that's how I remember it.

Write down the sign of your North Node (True Node) and the house that it's in. Think of it as your own personal due north.

To get your South Node (talents and karma), look 180 degrees across from your North Node to the opposite sign... and write that sign and house down.

When you have all of that together... go read my detailed North Node descriptions to change your life!

Well done! You're doing free karmic astrology...
